I-90 from Start to Finish<\/b><\/font>
\n
Butte, MT
\n
611.3 miles
\n
Four pits stops: two in Washington, one in Idaho, one in Montana<\/p>\n

My butt hurts. Random thoughts from my 10 hours on the road:
\n
Seattle was gorgeous as I left\u00e2\u20ac\u201dcrisp and clear with perfect views of Mt. Ranier and Mt. Baker. Of course, there was traffic at 10:20 a.m., but that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Seattle for you. Before I left, I debated taking the gym parking sticker off my car. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153What if I want to park near the gym when I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m back?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d I think it I realized for the first time that the car wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t going to be back in Seattle, that I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m leaving it in Boston. Threw me for a minute.<\/p>\n

Boredom set in at mile 208. Loud music and Diet Coke helped somewhat. The legal limit for alcohol is .08. Why is there no legal limit for caffeine?<\/p>\n

There are no rest stops for the first 88 miles of I-90. There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s only one rest stop on I-90 in all of Idaho.<\/p>\n

I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t eat all day. I kept burping up chicken wings. My stomach didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t hurt or anything, just the idea of food was rather nauseating. I passed a restaurant called Wingers. Didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t strike me as the least bit amusing.<\/p>\n

My windshield has become bug heaven.<\/p>\n

Amusing game between me and the car: too hot, AC goes on. Too cold, AC goes off. Too hot, too cold. Not a damn thing in-between.<\/p>\n

Ritzville\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 ain\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t.<\/p>\n

There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a Martha Inn in George, Washington. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not sure why this amused me as much as it did.<\/p>\n

Lost my phone signal and an hour in Montana. For some reason, was surprised by both.<\/p>\n

Butte, Montana, fills up. Apparently, according to the clerk at the Best Western (because the Motel 8 had no vacancies) every idiot knows that, except for me. I got one of two rooms left at the Red Lion.
